Hi, recently I made a big mistake and wanted to tell others so they would not
suffer the same fate I did. I saw programs saying they could speed up my
computer and optimize performance by checking the registry and fixing
problems. Programs such as Reg Cure and Spy Bot search and destroy. I used
these programs and they messed up my computer bad. The registry is basically
a database of files and has nothing to do with speed I learned later.
Microsoft reccomends only advanced users alter it and MS has their own
editing program for advanced users. Windows has buil in tools to speed up
your computer which are reliable and safe. See this article:

Hope this helps someone else.
